I'm getting the following error when running npm install -g simplehttp2server:

Tested on the latest versions of node (8.1.3) and npm (5.0.4). I'm running Arch Linux.

The same here with npm 5.1.0 and node 8.1.2 in Archlinux too.

Interesting. I‘ll investigate soon, probably can’t this week.

Pinging @1000ch to take a look if he has time.

I guess it is a permissions problem, i had the same problem, fixed it using a global folder in my home folder https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/fixing-npm-permissions

feimosi commented 7 years ago

I confirm, that resolves the issue :+1:

JojOatXGME commented 6 years ago

I just wanted to mention that the issue does still exist.

dandv commented 6 years ago

This issue still exist, and it's blocking a lot of people from installing preact-cli, which I believe @slightlyoff and @owencm would not be very happy about ;)

Pinging @1000ch

This issue is most likely with the npm wrapper: https://github.com/1000ch/simplehttp2server
